- Knobs:32 d are attached around the edge base of keys: 32 to enable user to rotate the base of entry keys easily. As FIG. 4 and 5 shows, the discrimination tag for information: 42, which is the unique reflectors coding by the binary system is attached on the base of entry keys: 32 at the same location of entry keys: 30. The information tag: 42 is consisted by combination of four reflectors/non-reflectors coding by binary system. For example, as FIG. 5 shows, the case; the most right is reflector and the others are non-reflectors means “1”.
- As FIG. 3 and4 shows, protuberances: 44 are made between each entry keys: 30 on the backside of the base of entry keys: 32 around the circular cylinder: 32 a. The protuberance: 45 which meshes between protuberances: 44 of the base of keys, is attached on the body of the public phone: 10 in order to stop the rotation at the right point where button of keys works.
- As FIG. 6 shows, the sensor:46 is attached at the basic point of the key on the base of the groove: 20 of the body of public phone: 10. The sensor consists of four pairs of the optical sensor: 50 and light-emitting diode (LED): 48. This sensor: 46 is connected to control unit: 52.
- How this information entry device work when the user enter his four digit PIN is as follows. At first the user rotates the base of entry device:12 using the knob: 30 b at random. The rotation will stop at some right position by protuberances: 44, 45 in order to the make the button of key: 34, 36, 38 work. Then the user pushes the entry key. The button sends an electronic signal to the control unit and control unit recognizes what location user chose. Then the control unit: 52 receives the information of key on the basic point from the sensor: 46. The control unit recognizes the information on the entry key that the user pushed by calculating the relative distance of the basic point and key pushed.
- When the information of the key on the basic point is “1” and the key pushed is the second right of basic point, the control unit:52 recognizes that the information of the key pushed is “3”. (This is the case that the information of key on the basic point: position a FIG. 6 and the key on the position c is pushed in FIG. 6). The user finishes entering his 4 digit PIN by repeating this three times.
- Next explanation is the second sample of adapting the information entry device of this invention. FIG. 7 is the overview of the touch panel screen of ATM.

Each key: 66 of twelve keys has the unique information from 0 to 9, # and *. These keys are arranged in order and in circle. When the user touches “Scramble” button, these entry keys: 66 rotate in order and stop at random. After the rotation of keys, CPU: 62 recognizes the information by memorizing the how many keys rotate from the first.
- How this information entry device works in the second sample is as follows. FIG. 8 is the PIN entry screen of ATM adopting this information entry device. At first the user inserts the card to ATM and selects this PIN entry screen. Then the screen monitor displays entry keys:66 in order and in circle.
- When the user touches “Scramble” button:74 on the screen monitor, CPU: 62 generates a random number (S102, S103) and makes keys on the screen rotate this random number of keys (S104). And CPU memorizes how many keys rotate from the first (S105) and displays the information of keys again (S106). In the case that the user does not touch “Scramble” button, the user goes to PIN entry step (S107).
- The user enters the PIN touching the entry key:66 displayed on the touch screen monitor: 60. Then CPU: 62 recognizes the information of the key touched by matching the location where user touched and information of keys displayed (S107). When the user pushes “Enter” button: 68 after pushing four keys (S108), CPU: 62 finishes the PIN entry processing.
- In other hand, the user can enter his PIN without pushing “Scramble” button:74. (S102, S18) And in this information entry device the user enters PIN pushing “Scramble” button: 74 after entering one number of PIN.
- As above mentioned, the user can rotate the information entry device of this invention before and after entering PIN.
